Abstract
METHOL, Geronimo; DUPONT, Marcelo; REY, Rogelio and CUNEO, Alejandro. Anterior Dislocation Traumatic Hip Obturator in Pediatric Age. A Case Report. Anfamed [online]. 2019, vol.6, n.2, pp.66-71. Epub Dec 01, 2019. ISSN 2301-1254. https://doi.org/10.25184/anfamed2019v6n2a8.
Hip dislocation of the anterior-obturator type is an unusual pathology in pediatric orthopedics, but with potentially serious complications in evolution. By the way, we present the case of a 14-year-old girl who suffered a secondary anterior-obturator dislocation and high-energy trauma. A closed reduction was made in the surgical block under general anesthesia, with good evolution and without complications in a follow-up of 24 months.
